MapleMe and whoever else likes America's Test Kitchen (Maple, you do, right? Or am I misremembering?!)
I just got an email from them about how they're starting America's Test Kitchen Magazine. So, presumably, a third magazine, after Cooks Illustrated and Cooks Country. WHAT THE HECK. They really need to consolidate, not... the opposite of consolidate diversify.

Crap, I saw that email but deleted it before reading it. I lurve ATK, but yeah, have a single, solid product per platform and leave it at that.

I'm sorry Freezerburn
LO woke at 1:30 this morning screaming and I blame daycare and the goldfish they gave him for a snack. I know it is fake cheese, but there is enough dairy or something else in it to cause him issues

Yeah. DH got me a membership to all their stuff for Christmas. It's awesome, but it's a little overwhelming how many actual online places I have to look to find things.

I need advice. A girl I work with has PCOS and has been very open about the fact that she trying for #2. She just completed a failed cycle and while we aren't super close, I want to show her some support. Is there anything I can say or do to show her support during this time? Or anything I really shouldn't say?

There is straight up cheddar cheese in goldfish. If he's sensitive to dairy, goldfish are a big no.

What about just a little card or note or email or something that just says "Hugs. I'm here for you." Or something similar. Maybe a bag of Hershey's hugs, omg how cute is that?

And whatever you do, DO NOT SAY that God has a plan, it happened for a reason, it's for the best, or any other excuse like that.

Yeah...
Yes he is dairy sensitive and I had stated no goldfish after the first time they gave it to him I hadn't realized that it was straight up cheddar, but I knew to avoid it regardless. It wasn't his normal teacher who gave it to him, so I just sent an email requesting that they make note that he can't have them.
We found out last night that MH's uncle has throat cancer. At Christmastime he was really ill, couldn't keep much down, and had lost a lot of weight. He hadn't gone to the doctor because he was scared of what they would tell him. I encouraged him to go. He promised me he would go after the new year. He got so bad from then until now that they had to put in a feeding tube already. I am really sad.
rockiesnugget I don't understand why you aren't more pissed off about this? If my DCP gave my LO goldfish after I had told them she couldn't tolerate dairy, I'd be livid. Especially if he was up all night in pain.
abby Damn it girl, you and your family just can't win. Sending so many T&P hon.

Yeah my husband would have to leave work to scrape me off the ceiling over the gold fish. I am fairly flexible and there are some things I'm willing to compromise on when my kid is in someone else's care, but not straight up health issues like that. What if he was anaphylactic?
(Hugs) abby. I'm so sorry you and your family have to deal with that.
My mom just told me that my dad's dad passed away on Jan. 7. My dad hasn't seen him since he was 5 or 6, and I've obviously never met him. It's strange not knowing how to feel.

Oh I am livid, but when I was typing it out I was trying to control keep everything in check. The email I sent this morning to the director was very direct and noted the issues that it caused.

abby I'm still full of nothing but big internet hugs.
I've got the tired brain going on. Ok, pregnancy brain. This bites. It's worse than the vague pukey feeling. Usually normal consistent things that I have to think about are ok, it's the mindless things that bite me or frequent changes. Like don't ask me what day it is, I have no clue. And I put my boots on then couldn't figure out why I couldn't put my slacks on this morning. DF just laughed at me saying I can't be this fat already.
